The Pit of Despair is a raw and riveting account of one woman's triumphant journey from the abyss of addiction through the hope-filled world of recovery. 

Lisa Jo B. intimately guides the audience through her struggles with sex, cocaine, and food addiction, her near-fatal relapse, and her ultimate redemption through a conscious connection with God via a 12-step program.

Beautiful, heartfelt prayers punctuate each chapter, designed for individual or group recitation, offering an interactive dimension to her story. Lisa Jo's vivid, emotional storytelling captures the devastating depths of addiction and the transformative joy of recovery, acting as a beacon of hope for those entangled in the thorny brambles of addiction.

Her candid approach dismantles societal stigma around addiction, by reframing it as a disease rather than a moral failing, aiding in the release of those struggling with toxic shame. She further empowers her audience by teaching them how to craft powerful prayers, fostering a closer relationship with Jesus Christ.

Uniquely straddling the domains of addiction recovery and Christian faith, this compelling memoir offers a potent remedy for those seeking a solution to their addiction, 12-steppers, and all believers in Christ who seek to better understand this profound struggle.

Lisa Jo B. is a survivor and advocate, who has courageously overcome addictions to substances and behaviors such as cocaine, food, nicotine, sex, and love. Since her transformative journey began in 2007, she's been an active participant in 12-step recovery programs. She is the author of several compelling articles, columns, and OP-EDS that have been published in numerous magazines and newspapers around the world.  A committed Christian, Lisa Jo credits her faith in Christ for her profound personal healing and for her perseverance in the face of adversity. Leveraging her expertise gained from five years working in the mental health field, she is deeply passionate about aiding others on their journey to recovery. Lisa Jo lives in Denver, Colorado, where she serves as a living testament that healing from the profoundest depths of despair is possible.
